I actually didn't search it, I was browsing through that particular forum and it was back quite far.

Some youtube videos on how to wrap dreads that I found. Justwanted to share these to give you some ideas of what can be done. The only one I've done myself is the criss cross one, but I actually criss cross the threads as I go, I don't wrap them one at a time.

Not sure aboutpoking a hole in your dread, Istart witha loop around the dread and that holds it just fine.

This is the same method as the third method in the above video, but I think this show it in more detail.

This last video features a rope instead of a dread, but I think you can do the same thing to your dread.

Edit: I tried to add the videos here, but thatdidn't work. Guess you have to go toYoutubeto see them. Sorry about that.

I would never consider putting a whole in my dread to start a wrap... whenever we used to do it to our hair when we were little we laid the tail along the hair we wanted to wrap and wrapped over the end of it.
